Apple iPhone trade-in values slashed for 2020

Apple has started the New Year as if it were still in the Christmas Spirit. That is, Ebenezer Scrooge before receiving a visit from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet To Come.

Reports in the US point out that the world’s richest tech firm has scythed through the trade-in values for pretty much every device on the roster. That means all of its recent iPhones, Macs and Apple Watch devices will not receive as much in trade-in value when upgrading.

For example, the estimated trade-in value for the iPhone XS Max is now $500 compared to the $600 estimated value it offered in the 24 hours prior to the report.

MacReports, also says the iPhone XS value is down $80, the iPhone XR’s estimated value is down $70, while you’ll only get an estimated $320 for your iPhone X commuted to the $400 you’d have got on January 9.
